Chapter 1179 Big Pool
On the other side, everyone walked down the steep slope toward the depths of the spiral downward cave.
No one knew how big this place was, but it felt like it had no bottom. After walking for almost twenty minutes, I finally saw a large number of stalactite fragments that had collapsed and shattered when Li Chengqi fought with Medusa.
At this time, you can see that a doorway with obvious signs of artificial repair appears at the bottom of the cave. However, the repair marks are very rough. In Li Chengqi's evaluation, it is like a steamed bun chewed by a dog...
A moist and salty wind came from behind the hole, which seemed to be connected to some large body of water, possibly an underground river or an underground saltwater lake.
Li Chengqi was still fearless and went in with his flashlight on.
The others quickly followed. After all, although Li Chengqi was reckless, it was actually safer to follow him.
Passing through the doorway and coming to a room that should be relatively empty, you can vaguely hear the sound of water hitting the stones, and there is a clear echo.
The next moment, two slender flames ignited in the darkness, illuminating the dark cave interior like wall lamps.
At this time, everyone saw that there was a huge pool not far away from them. It was almost unreasonable to call it a lake. It was estimated to be about two to three hundred meters wide.
The water flowed from one side of the wall to the other. It should be living water, but other than the pool, there was no trace of monsters or anything like that. It was just a big pool.
As for how deep it is, it's not easy to visually judge. The main reason is that no one dares to stand on the edge of the pool and look down. If the monster hides in the water, it is likely to be dragged down.
"It seems that Qian Sen and the others are not here either."
Li Chengqi looked around and saw no shadow of Qian Sen, not even a body.
The good news is that there may still be people alive without seeing the body, but the bad news is that it's likely that we still need to dig deeper.
The person on Charlie's side brought a strong flashlight, which was more reliable than the one used by Li Chengqi. He turned on the highest brightness and took a photo of the other side of the pool. It seemed that he could see that there was a lot of space on the other side, and he could continue to go. Go inside.
But this photo also made everyone notice that there seemed to be a huge black shadow flashing across the pool. It was unclear what it was, but it could not be much smaller than a fishing boat.
Charlie came up from behind and said:
"We can get the inflatable boat right away, but if there are monsters in the water, the whole army may be annihilated."
Dealing with monsters in the water is actually more troublesome than dealing with monsters on the shore.
After all, the resistance of water is much greater than that of air. Whether it is a sword or a bullet, it has no power in the water.
Using magic, apart from lightning attacks, is almost impossible to have any effect.
Generally speaking, if you want to deal with monsters in the water, you have to either lure them to the shore, or rely on a magician to bless everyone with underwater breathing spells, and then use special equipment to go down together and hard-top.
The underwater breathing spell is easy to talk about, and many people know it, but the special equipment is still up there, and at least two hours have passed.
And the current manpower is not enough.
Small monsters are not necessarily weak, but large monsters are definitely difficult to deal with.
It’s not easy to handle with the current manpower.
Seeing that Li Chengqi didn't speak, Charlie immediately started discussing countermeasures with Gan Xiaoyan and the others.
No matter how strong a person is, they all have what they are good at and what they are not good at. It is true that Li Chengqi crushed him all the way, but he has no experience in water fighting. Considering the situation of Medusa, if the monster here can also hurt him , jumping directly into the water for a duel is not a good choice.
However, Li Chengqi didn't say anything not because he felt it was difficult, but because he was thinking about countermeasures, and he really didn't spend much time.
"You should have brought the rope, right?"
Charlie, who was discussing countermeasures, was stunned when he heard this:
"Um... I did bring the rope, but it's not long enough to reach the other side of the pool."
"It doesn't take that long, just bring it with you and follow me."
Li Chengqi walked to the edge of the pool as he spoke. He opened his hands toward the water and made a gesture of praising the sun. The next moment, the turbulent water surface suddenly split from the middle, as if a path was opened from the water flow. The water flow on both sides turned into high walls and quickly moved to the left and right sides, revealing the dry bottom of the pool.
It seems that there are more Christians in Europe, and some of Charlie's devout Puritans have already knelt down.
"Moses divided the sea. Although I have doubts about the myth, this idea can still be used."
To Li Chengqi, this operation was nothing less than imitation, but to a devout Christian, it was no less than a miracle.
Li Chengqi said to the British guy behind him who picked up the cross on his neck and kissed and kissed him: "Don't worship blindly. I have nothing to do with your god. Tie the rope and let's go over."
This was necessary to clear up the relationship, lest someone chase him to his house later.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
I very much doubt whether the myths and stories of various countries once had some prototypes. Although the stories themselves have many contradictions and doubts, they must be myths that have prototypes and are slowly spread.
Just like the story of Hou Yi shooting the sun, it is likely that a long time ago there was a descendant named Yi who was very good at archery, and gradually it was said that he could shoot down the sun.
From this point of view, the story of Moses parting the sea may just be that Moses stretched out in displeasure when he saw that the way to escape was blocked by water, and just in time to catch up with the low tide of the sea, so the story became more and more outrageous.
So why couldn't it be Moses who had divine power?
After all, Qian Sen said that it was the first time in history that gods fell to the earth. Even Aidas and the others said that they had never heard of gods coming to the earth, so naturally it was unlikely that they had any divine power.
However, Li Chengqi's operation seemed to have given the British people a great mental impact. It was no longer a surprise. Even if Li Chengqi deliberately distanced himself from the relationship, it seemed to have no big effect.
Looking back, some people even deliberately stepped on Li Chengqi's footsteps, as if they were particularly honored.
Although Li Chengqi is a god, he still can't understand religious fanaticism.
The pool exposed at the bottom was about ten meters deep, and the rope was of course enough. The group of people tied ropes on the shore and slid down, stepping on the muddy bottom of the pool and continuing to move forward.
This experience is very incredible for ordinary people. The water flow on both sides looks like jelly, leaning firmly to one side, revealing a road.
However, Li Chengqi felt that it was more like walking into the underwater passage of an aquarium.
After advancing about a hundred meters, and almost halfway to the pool, the water wall on the left suddenly fluctuated.
A tentacle almost as thick as a telephone pole stretched out from inside and slapped Li Chengqi, who was walking at the front.
"You're finally out."
Li Chengqi was just waiting for it to come out.
The tentacle had just been raised, and then it was frozen in place as if it had been cast on the body. Then there seemed to be a pair of invisible big hands in the air, directly pulling the tentacle and its body out of the water.
As expected, this was a pale white, oversized squid.
On its head, two lantern-sized eyes rolled forward and looked at Li Chengqi. Unexpectedly, there seemed to be a sense of fear in their eyes.
But Li Chengqi will not let it go.
"Watch the move, a righteous uppercut!"
He made an uppercut from a distance, and the oversized squid was immediately hit by the invisible force in the air. It flew to the top of the cave with a whoosh, and then there was the sound of exhaust gas. Impaled by the massive stalactites hanging from the ceiling of the cave.
Giant squid, pawn.
